Tired eyes and a hollow appearance can be the result of volume loss under the eyes, something that often occurs over time. Even with enough sleep, these signs of ageing can remain visible.

What are tear troughs?
Tear troughs are the subtle lines that form under your eyes, running from the inner corner of the eye towards the cheek. They often develop with age, but can also be genetic. As the skin becomes thinner and the fat under the eyes decreases, the tear troughs can become deeper and more visible. This can sometimes give you a tired appearance, even when you have slept well.
If you sometimes wonder why you look tired, even after a good night’s sleep, this could well be the cause. Other treatments such as lip fillers can also contribute to a more youthful appearance.
Tear troughs are sometimes confused with other causes of a tired look, such as bags under the eyes. Knowing the difference is important for choosing the right treatment. That is why we recommend reading our article on the difference between fluid bags and fat bags to find out what applies to your situation.
What causes hollow tear troughs and how do they affect your appearance?
Hollow tear troughs are usually caused by a combination of ageing, genetic factors and the loss of fat beneath the skin. As we age, the volume in the skin under the eyes decreases, making the tear troughs deeper and more visible. This can create a tired or gloomy appearance, even when you have slept well. The shadow created by hollow tear troughs makes your face look less fresh. Restoring this volume can give your facial expression an energetic and youthful look again. In addition to tear trough fillers, Botox for crow’s feet can also help refresh your appearance by reducing wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.
How does a tear trough filler treatment work?
A tear trough filler treatment at Amsterdam Skin Clinic involves injecting a hyaluronic acid filler into the hollow under the eyes. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that is well tolerated by the body and helps replenish lost volume. Our doctors use a cannula to apply the filler carefully, filling the tear troughs and making your appearance look fresher and more rested.
The treatment is quick, and because the filler also adds hydration, the skin gets a healthy, youthful glow. In addition, the fillers contain an anaesthetic, making the treatment as comfortable as possible. Your health and safety are our top priority, which is why we only use high-quality, FDA-approved fillers.
The tear trough filler treatment
This is what you can expect from the tear trough filler treatment at Amsterdam Skin Clinic:
Consultation and discussing your wishes
The treatment starts with a personal consultation, in which you discuss your wishes with the doctor. The doctor will give you honest advice about the possibilities and the expected results of the tear trough filler.
Preparation and marking
If you decide to go ahead with the treatment, the doctor marks the treatment areas under your eyes to determine the right placement for the filler.
Injecting the tear trough filler
The doctor carefully applies the filler using a cannula (a blunt needle). This technique minimises the risk of bruising and swelling.
Possible temporary swelling
Some mild swelling may occur after the treatment. This is a normal reaction and usually disappears within a few days.
Smoothing the filler
After the injection, the doctor gently massages the area to distribute the filler evenly, creating a natural-looking result.
After the treatment
The result of the treatment is visible immediately, although the final result will continue to settle over the following days.
What to do after the treatment?
To achieve the best result after your tear trough filler treatment, we recommend following this aftercare advice:
- Stay upright for the first 2 hours after the treatment and avoid lying flat.
- Avoid smoking, intensive exercise and alcohol for 24 hours.
- Protect your skin from the sun and avoid sunbeds for 2 weeks.
- During these 2 weeks, it is best not to visit a sauna, spa or hammam.
- Avoid facial treatments, laser treatments or peels for the first 2 weeks after the treatment.

FAQ
What is a tear trough filler?
A tear trough filler is a treatment in which hyaluronic acid is injected into the hollows under the eyes, known as the tear troughs. These fillers restore lost volume and reduce a tired appearance, which can result in a fresh and rested look.
How much filler is needed for a tear trough filler treatment?
The amount of filler needed varies depending on the depth of the tear troughs and the desired result. On average, between 1 and 2 ml of filler is used per eye, but this can differ from person to person. During a consultation, the doctor can give you tailored advice based on your situation.
How much does a tear trough filler treatment cost?
The price of a tear trough filler treatment depends on the amount of filler used and the extent of treatment required. At Amsterdam Skin Clinic, a tear trough filler treatment starts from €425 for 1 ml. During a consultation, you will receive a clear, tailored quote.
Is a tear trough filler treatment painful?
The treatment is generally well tolerated. An anaesthetic cream is applied to the treatment area, and the hyaluronic acid fillers contain Lidocaine, a local anaesthetic, to keep any discomfort to a minimum. Many people do not find the treatment painful.
When is the result visible?
The result is often visible immediately after the treatment, but may change slightly as the swelling subsides. The final result is usually fully visible within a few days.
How long does a tear trough filler last?
The results of a tear trough filler can last between 6 and 12 months, depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle and the amount of filler used. After this period, a follow-up treatment may be needed to maintain the effect.
What is the difference between under-eye bags and tear troughs?
Under-eye bags are often caused by fluid retention or fat under the eyes, while tear troughs are caused by volume loss. Each cause therefore requires a different approach. In some cases, tips for under-eye bags can help, but with volume loss a tear trough filler can be a more effective solution. There are also other ways to tackle under-eye bags.
